Cooking Converter
Convert cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, ounces, liters, and more.
About this tool
Translate recipe measurements across US customary and metric units, with separate modes for volume and weight. Volume conversions relate teaspoons, tablespoons, fluid ounces, cups, pints, quarts, gallons, milliliters, and liters through fixed factors. Weight mode covers mass units without pretending that a cup of every ingredient weighs the same. A quick-reference panel lists common kitchen relationships. One cup equals 16 tablespoons or about 236.6 milliliters; 3 teaspoons equal 1 tablespoon; and 2 US cups equal 1 pint. If a recipe calls for 1.5 cups, that is 24 tablespoons. These conversions are handy when scaling a weeknight recipe, using imported cookware, following a baking video, or replacing a missing measuring cup with spoons. Choose the correct Volume or Weight tab, source unit, amount, and destination unit. US fluid measures are used, so similarly named imperial units may differ. For dry ingredients, convert weight to weight whenever possible: 100 grams of flour and 100 grams of sugar have equal mass but occupy different volumes. Kitchen measurements and package labeling are often rounded, so practical results may reasonably use fewer decimal places.
